Mad Flyer

Attachment 2391 I can shoot 6 shot groups like this all day atleast 2 or 3 groups have a flyer i think my rifle has ADHD

Where is the flyer in the string? Is it different every time? What weight barrel? So many questions,so many variables.

its allways high by about 1/2inch and its allways around the 3rd or 4th shot its a heavy varmint contour shilen 1in8 twist 105 amax 43.2 grains 7828ssc .243

I' d be checking everything as far as tightness. Stock screws and all scope mounts/rings. Is the scope new? Did you install the barrel?

You're either on the edge of a node or your forend is not exactly at the same place on that shot or your cheek weld is inconsistent or even the way you shoulder the rifle.

Or this is as good as it gets which isn't bad anyways.

"Or this is as good as it gets which isn't bad anyways. "

I know I wouldn't be happy with that! There has to be a good reason,just got to find it.

If you have sling swivel studs, take them off & see what happens. Assuming your shooting off bags.

If reloading; primer choice, primer seating, neck tension, powder choice, width of the powder accuracy node/powder weight-volume variation.

Looking at your target it could be a couple of things, your breathing or your load is off a couple of tenths of a grain.( velocity)
I also see more horizontal drift than verticle and that is usually seating depth, try going a few thousands deeper and every thing should tighten up.

what are your velocities and extreme spreads?

i shot a lot of 7828 in a 260rem and the best groups i could get were about what you have here minus the flyer...also 7828 is not the best powder for a 243 and i doubt your going to get much better out of it than what you have even if you get the flyer to shoot in the group...as said above the flyer can be caused by several things but id start by switching powers if it were me...i know its hard to find but H4350 would be my first choice..next would be H4831sc then RL-17 IMR4451 or IMR4350.

Thanks for all the info guys. 7828ssc is my fall back load i think. I can allways find it anywere i go so ill be good. I drive truck so i only get to shoot about every 2 weekends im gonna go over everything this weekend since its so dam cold. I dont shoot of the bench i do all my shooting prone 8 years of the military im used to prone. I just talked to an old army buddy he was a scout sniper with me hes a 243 nut to he uses RL23 and imr 7977 enduron with great effect so im gonna start with one of them 2 next

H-4831/4831sc is my go to powder for the 243win with the heavies. So far no other powder proved more accurate.
